Panel hits Rangel with 13 alleged ethics charges Posted on 7/29/2010
House investigators accused Rep. Charlie Rangel, D-NY, of 13 violations of congressional ethics standards.
The allegations include failure to report rental income from vacation property in the Dominican Republic.
They also accuse Rangel of failing to report more than $600,000 in assets on his congressional financial disclosure statements.
Lawyers for Rangel and the House ethics committee worked out a plea deal, but it was too late.
Rep. Bonner Comments Rep. Jo Bonner, R-AL, said, "Mr. Rangel was given multiple opportunities to settle this matter. Instead, he chose to move forward to the public trial phase."
Speaker Pelosi Comments House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-CA, seem resigned to the case proceeding.
Pelosi said, "The chips will have to fall where they may politically."
She said pursuing ethics cases against House members is "a serious responsibility that we have."
